Although it’s said that Van Gogh(梵高)(1853-1890)sold only one painting during his lifetime, different theories(看法)exist(存在).
It is true that The Red Vineyard is the only painting sold during Van Gogh’s lifetime, and that was officially(官方地)recorded and accepted by the art world. It’s recorded that Van Gogh started painting at 27 and died at 37. His famous paintings were produced after he went to France in 1888, only two years before he died.

Sadly he himself died just six months later. He left a large collection of art to his wife, who sold some of Van Gogh’s works, lent as many as she could to exhibitions, and published(出版)many of Van Gogh’s letters to his brother. Without her, Van Gogh would never have become as famous as he is today. After her death, her son founded the Van Gogh Museum.

A city without cars would be very strange,right But Venice is such a city. Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It wasn’t built on land,like Beijing or Shanghai,but on more than 110 islands. 1
Even so,travel isn’t difficult. The waterways have always been the best ways to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go. 2 They like to enjoy the scenery(风光) and cool summer nights while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along.
Venice grew out of small islands in saltwater lakes when some Italians escaped from a war more than 1,500 years ago and built homes there. 3 Once,people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. 4 Another problem is the rising sea water. The temperature has risen over the years. 5
Every year,high waters hit the city in autumn and winter. When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is underwater. Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower.
A.Water makes the city special,but it is also a big problem.
B.This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean melt.
C.Sea water is everywhere around the city.
D.Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters.
E.People in Venice move from place to place by boat.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。一位老人在印度买了一千克红辣椒大吃起来,结果辣得他上蹿下跳,周围之人捧腹大笑。短文告诉我们:有舍才有得!
1. cheapest 由上句中表范围的most of it was very cheap可推知,大部分水果都很便宜,但最便宜的是一篮红水果。名词thing前面应用形容词作定语,故此处应填形容词最高级cheapest。
2. asked 由第1段第1句An old man went to India.可知,本文讲述的是过去的一个故事,故此处应用动词的一般过去时态作谓语。故填动词过去式asked。
3. so 分析句子结构可知,前半句Two rupees in India is almost nothing表原因,空格后面的 the old man bought a whole kilogram and started eating it表结果,前后句之间是“前因后果”关系,故此处应用连词so表因果关系。
4. to burn/burning begin to do/doing sth.开始做某事,是固定搭配。故填动词不定式to burn或动名词burning。
5. as 本句是“as + 形容词或副词原形 + as”结构,意为“和……一样”,表比较。故填连词as。
6. down up and down上上下下,是固定搭配。故填副词down。
7. heads 由前面的形容词性物主代词their可知,此处指的是“他们的头”,故填复数名词heads。
8. himself say to oneself自言自语,是固定搭配。主语The old man是第三人称单数,故此处应填反身代词himself。
9. spent 由前面的助动词have可知,本句是现在完成时态,故此处应填动词spend的过去分词spent。
10. from learn from sb.向某人学习,是固定搭配。故填介词from。
